Volume dependence of respiratory system resistance during artificial ventilation in rabbits
The volume dependence of respiratory resistance (Rrs), usually observed during normal breathing, is expected to be accentuated during expiratory flow limitation (EFL). In order to quantify this dependence we s...

Resistance measurements. Forced oscillations and plethysmography
Whether a subject breathes spontaneously or is artificially ventilated, the pressure which must be applied to the respiratory system to ventilate (Prs) includes two basic components: 1) a static or elastic com...

Composite flow-volume curves matched at total lung capacity in the study of density dependence of maximal expiratory flows
The helium to air difference in maximal expiratory flow at mid-vital capacity (ΔHe 50%) and the volume at which air and helium expired flow rates become identical (Viso
